The bridge over #10 is about 1.1 miles or 1.75 kliks north of Olde Base Line Road and about .82 miles or 1.3 kliks south of The Grange Side Road. It crosses the highway where CN’s track from Georgetown to Barrie at one time crossed at grade. Now the Caledon Trailways Path.

i noticed cops doing that alot lately
ill be driving down the 401, and on a random bridge there will be an opp officer sitting with his radar gun, and later you will notice an opp cruiser sitting on the onramp waiting for a radio on who to pull over :S
i guess its not just looking into mirrors and side of the road anymore
if speed doesnt scare you, the truck around the corner will.

Overpass radar positioning has several advantages for random tax collectors - I wonder why they didn't use it more before. It's not any more sneaky than hiding behind a bush and it practically eliminates parallax issues that can be argued in court.

^ If I'm not mistaken it's a "rail trail", i.e. abandoned railway converted to a public trail. Excellent for bicycle rides due to solid surface, lack of traffic, nice scenery and no steep grades. There are dozens of those around GTA and they are pretty well distributed all over Noth America.

I think if i am not mistaken it starts in Tonawanda. NY and ends in Tobermory.
I usually ride it midweek from Mississauga road upto Palgrave.
As "Vlad" says nice scenery.
Couple of years ago i meet a 90 year old walking the whole distance, camping etc.
I bump into the odd milf local walking the dog.
Still waiting for the offer, for the milf not the dog. lol.

thats exactly what it is....in fact if you follow it all the way east, you end up at Mill Rd in Tottenham and right on the other side of the road is the steam train tourist ride train station, they continue to use the remainder of the rails for the tourist rides on the weekends...They even left a bit of the rails on the trail side of the road when they have to do locomotive maintenance they park train cars there.
i just followed it west and it looks like the actual trail ends at Winston Churchill blvd but the old railroad outline keeps going, it just hasnt been gravel covered....you just see the tree outlines.
just some more sniffing around and the old train tracks lead to the Georgetown Go train stop, although the last couple km is pretty weak due to the housing build up, but it looks like they reused it a few times as new roads...

Not that exciting either but Heartlake road also runs parallel and got a ticket there .Speed limit at 60 and nobody on the road and there is nothing there.Still got a ticket. Did not even see where he was hiding, stopped at the stop sign and he turned on his cherries.Bang done like a dogs dinner.15 over no points.
Over the years I have seen radar traps on Dixie, Heart Lake and Kennedy at many locations between Brampton and Caledon. When the OPP is not blitzing 10, which is usually on the weekends, you will find them on the alternate routes. Since those roads have speed limits that vary from 80 to 60k and also have stop signs at pretty much every cross road, it is typically quicker just to stick to 10 and drone along at 90 or so.
